> But you're underestimating just how much of the labor force are effectively just an interface between a customer and some app
That's the sleight of hand LLM advocates are playing right now.
"Imagine how many people are just putting data into computers! We could replace them all!"
Yet LLMs aren't "just putting data into a computer" They aren't even really user/app interfaces. They are a magic box you can give directives to and get (generally correct, but not always) answers from.
Go ahead, ask your LLM "Create an excel document with the last 30 days of the high temperatures for blank". What happens? Did it create that excel document? Why not?
LLMs don't bridge the user/app gap. They bridge the user/knowledge gap, sometimes sort of.
